@Specsavers Yes, and all of the relevant branch numbers listed on Google. All take me through to the contact centre… who tell me to call the branches 🤦‍♀️

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@Specsavers How do I call a branch? The contact centre advised me to phone round my local branches with an urgent stock query but all the numbers just redirect back to the contact centre!

@SP_EnergyPeople Your bot just tells me it doesn’t understand me. I need to speak to a real person and not a crappy AI system.

@SP_EnergyPeople How am I meant to pay my bill? Your website has been down for days and the app hasn’t worked since March!

@CorinneDinDin 4.5hrs in the queue on the way in and 4 out. We got a hotel and drove back this morning; I was getting way too ill to have done it in one go. I’ll be invoicing them for it!

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@ImNotTheVillain @SlamDunkMusic Same: our 4yr old would have been in full meltdown, I don’t know how other people had their kids behaving so well. I won’t ever take the risk by coming back!

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@ImNotTheVillain @SlamDunkMusic Mate, same! 7.5m pregnant; stuck in queue for 4.5hrs on the way in and it’s been 2 (and counting) trying to leave. Couldn’t even get water on-site because the water point queue was 45m long. We prepared so well for this to be safe but they failed so badly in infrastructure.

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@arsonistsprayer @SlamDunkMusic X100. We waited 4.5hrs in the car park queue on the way in and have been standstill on the way out for 2 already. No signs, no water, no staff.

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@_greasepaint @SlamDunkMusic At this rate I’ll be giving birth in one 😂😂 Traffic Management guy at the roundabout directing people across both lanes… when of course only one is actually for the queue 🫠

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@CorinneDinDin How long did it take you in the end? We’ve been stuck in standstill for 3.5hrs now and I am struggggggggling without a toilet or water!

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@_greasepaint @SlamDunkMusic We’ve seen people pissing, shitting and throwing up in bushes at the side of the road so I’m sure the locals are thrilled with it all!

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@_greasepaint @SlamDunkMusic Yo @SlamDunkMusic - any response at all?

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@_greasepaint @SlamDunkMusic Agreed. I’m heavily pregnant and desperately in need of a loo and some water but we’re still stuck in standstill queues with no way of leaving. Never again. 🤦‍♀️

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@SlamDunkMusic How about those of us who have been in your car park queue for the last 3hrs? I’m heavily pregnant and we have no way of leaving because it’s standstill.

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@_greasepaint @SlamDunkMusic We’re the same: we’ve been told the wrong directions by roadside staff twice, all the signs lead to closed roads, we’re now stuck in standstill traffic, and the band we came to see start in 3 mins time 🙃

@casey_cf @EveningNews I had someone stand on my foot with a metal-heeled stiletto and rip it open by accident several years ago… the SOS Bus stitched me up and saved me a trip to A&E!

[Lex @lexbarbie]

@CorinneDinDin Eeeee I better you see there! ❤️ (you’ll be able to spot me even through swollen eyes 😂🤰)

@demicolleen Norwich! Surrounded by countryside and close to the coast; short train ride out to beach and seals. Very vegan friendly :)
